  1. ok well it depends on how hardcore you are i mean if your going like hardcore then i suggest 250/500 sit ups that can burn up to like 1500 to 2000 a day i do it and its only 2 weeks in and i already have a tight 4 pac  


  2. hahah go for a 10 mile run!

  3. swim like Micheal Phelps. If he's able to intake 12 thousand calories for breakfast and look like that, I'm sure he got a secret to burn all of those calories.  

  4. While you are bicycling, wear sweatshirt and sweatpants. This will make you sweat more, thus burning more calories. How many more depends on how rigorous your workout is.

    Just make sure that you are drinking enough water so you do not get dehydrated.

  5. Sorry, but cycling 30 minutes only burns about 200 cals at most, unless its all uphill at a mod pace.

    Run or swim for couple hours. That'll burn off about 1000. Or ride your bicycle for 3 hours.

  6. how about taking in less calories, but make sure not to take in too little. I think burning 500 calories / day is very sufficient for losing weight... if that's what you're trying to do... there I go again assuming.

    Unless you are fit already, I think your body will respond to that.

  7. I don't know what kind of cycling you're doing, but I highly doubt you are burning 500 calories from it, only doing it for half an hour.  

    By the way, just a little fact, your body burns over 1,000 calories on it's own just to sustain life.  This is called your resting metabolic rate (RMR).  To see what your RMR is, look at these sites:

    http://www.caloriesperhour.com/index_bur...

    http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/calrmr.h...

    The number it gives you is how many calories your body burns on it's own just to sustain itself.

    If you decide to burn even more calories you can always bike for an hour, or you can do HIIT (High intensity Interval Training), which is the most effective cardio exercise for fat loss, and the only one that sustains muscle mass completely.  

    It burns fat 9 times more effectively than any other cardio, and it only needs to be done for 12-15 minutes.  Find out all about it here:

    By the way, wearing a sweatshirt and sweatpants makes you sweat more, but that doesn't burn any more calories, you just lose more water weight, which will be gained right back once you drink water, so I would advise you just wear light clothing.

    Best of luck!

  8. Depends on the present condition. Your estimate may be off about 30 min of bic ride unless it is high restistance stationary or you are going up hill on a steep hill and just coasting down in no time.

    Buy a pedometer and some weights strapped on type and use them all day, at the end of the day check the reading and make sure it reads 20,000 steps every day. 1000 cal per day is 2 lbs per week extra weight loss.

    Read the articles and surf the sites, do a re-evaluation and enjoy the weight loss and good health,slow and staedy wins the race.

    4.Must know that it is considered a starvation diet.

    5.Drink at lest 1 gallon of water but do not drink more then 1 ½ gallon of water per day.

    6.Exercise 3 hours per day. One hour of which must be body parts specific routine, you can find it on the Internet and in the library.

    7.Keep total calorie at 1000 per day, all vegetable and fruits; avoid fat (2% max calorie in fat). Eat 8 meals 125 cal each at equal interval, n 10 hours. No food 4 hours before bed time and 8 hours of rest (sound sleep preferred). Keep total calorie at 1000 per day, all vegetable and fruits; avoid fat (2% max calorie in fat).

    8.Make sure you eat vegetarian proteins such as lentils and pulses (American call them cereals, but not break fast type that contains mainly crabs

    9.Please note. If you use non vegetarian diet you will use up calorie, and will have hunger prangs. This is the main reason for vegetarian diet. Other then that you can use any thing.

    ***********************

    Exercise 2 hours per day:

    You do not need to join a gym.

    15 minutes walk before each main meal, 15 minutes walk before bed time. Walk any where office, home apartment, side walk, road (if safe). Walk at good clip (fast as fast as you can).

    1 hour of other free hand exercises, break it up in 15 minutes, if you can if you like or must.

    A.Include free hand upper body exercises.

    B.Do seat ups.

    C.Do crunches.

    D.Do standing bends (try to touch the ground with legs spread to maintain balance)? Make sure you do not tip over. Do not have to touch the ground but must try to go as far as you can.

    E.Through the waist tilt your body slightly back, stay close to the wall so you do not fall back ward, be very care full, not to injure the back or back bone at the waist.

    F.Do some side bend, by bending at the waist keeping your hand on the side of thighs, may want to spread the legs for balance. Go alternate, do them left, right, left right.

    G.Do push ups.

    H.Do chin ups (if you can and have a bar available).

    Once this period is over, or once the weight loss is achieved then go back to other articles for maintaining the weight loss or for further loss as needed per Body Mass Index or at 1500 calorie level. At this level if you are non vegetarian then you can add 500 calorie of non vegetarian food without getting huger prangs or worry about putting on the weight.

    Life Style Change Program for Loosing Weight

    Who needs to loose weight?

    Answer is simply not every one, only the over weight person.

    Who is over weight?

    This is simple, it is easy to find out and it is available on line, it is call Body Mass Index, and calculations are simple. According to this calculation if you find your self say only 10 pounds more, you may not be over weight. Remember every one is slightly different and you can just watch it, on your own and not let it get out of hand.

    What is the reason for being over weight?

    This is also simple, have doctor check you out for any physical or hormonal abnormalities. The doctor should be advising you of your ideal weight even though you have already figured out the ideal weight and you are seen a doctor because your weight is not where it should be according to BMI.

    Basic understanding of loosing weight.

    Every one uses calories at all time. There may be some exceptions to this rule, for most of us; the rate of use, even when we are resting, we use 65 calories per hour minimum. This comes to1560 calories per day. The actual range is between 65 and 100 calories per hour. This is consistent with heart rate of 60 to 80 bits per minute.

    Simply put any person eating only say 1500 calories a day, and moderately active, will not put on any additional weight. At this level of calories consumption the person should loose some weight over long haul, depending on the individual rate of metabolism.

    What is a healthy weight loss?

    When one tries to loose weight, one should loose excess fat; there should be a healthy loss of weight. Loosing muscles tissue is unhealthy.

    How much is one pound of body fat?

    One pound of body fat weight is approximately same as one pound of butter. If you look at a one pound package of butter, you will see it contains between 3200 to 3600 calories. This means that each time a person burns 3600 more calories then what the person takes in, the person will loose one pound.

    How many pounds should a person loose in a month?

    Any one that is trying to trim down can figure out how long it took to put on the excess pounds. The fact is; it did not happen over night. It usually creeps up, but the person realizes one day suddenly.

    This is why a person should not be in a hurry to loose weight. The person should start at once but go slowly. Do not wait for New Year.

    Taking above in to consideration a person should not loose more then 2 pounds per month. If a person looses any thing more then that, chances are that the person will not be able to maintain the weight loss. It will take extra efforts to loose and it will take extra efforts to keep it off. Remember slow and steady wins the race.

    When an overweight person should start loosing weight?

    At once. The person should not be in a hurry to loose weight. The person should start at once but go slowly. Again do not wait for New Year.

    How does body react to weight lose?

    Any time there is depletion of fat beyond certain level, the body reacts by slowing down metabolism, so that it can build up fat. If the body is use to say 2000 calories per day and detects only 1500 calories per day for considerable length of time it reacts to the situation by reducing the rate of metabolism. When this happens one need to help body by increasing activity. Usually takes about four weeks for body to react.

    What is the relationship between body and body fat?

    Under ideal condition fat act as a reserved energy source for our body. Certain level of fat is good for healthy living and even may save our life in certain life threatening situations. Every one should have minimum required level of fat on their body.

    What if there is no weight loss at 1500 calories in take level?

    This is a rear occurrence. Do not panic. The body has slowed down the metabolism to such a great extent that you must help it. The only way to help is to increase activities, this means you have to exercise. You do not need to join Gym but you can go on an an half an hour walk every day or batter still engage in a power walk for same duration. Power walk burns 250 calories per mile and walk burns 100 calories per mile approximately.

    What is the importance of body fat for a female?

    Females require little more body fat then men. In the absence of certain required level of body fat, females are not able to function properly; in particular they may not be able to conceive. You can find lot more about this on internet.

    At 1500 calories intake per day what one must drink and eat?

    Drink

    One gallon of liquids most of witch should be in the form of water (zero calories).

    Calories should be accounted for all other liquids.

    Why water?

    Water is a universal solvent, means it dissolves almost every thing at least in very minute quantities. This helps purification of body.

    Eat

    What should be your proportionate in take of fat, Proteins and Complex Carbohydrates?

    This depends on what your need are.

    1. Need to reduce fat.

    Fat: 10 percent of 1500 calorie per day = 150 calories.

    Complex Carbohydrates: 30 percent of 1500 calories per day = 450 calories.

    Proteins: 60 percent of 1500 calories per day = 900 calories.

    2. Need more energy.

    Fat: 10 percent of 1500 calorie per day = 150 calories.

    Complex Carbohydrates: 40 percent of 1500 calories per day = 450 calories.

    Proteins: 50 percent of 1500 calories per day = 750 calories.

    3. Need to reduce weight only.

    Fat: 25 percent of 1500 calorie per day = 375 calories.

    Complex Carbohydrates: 25 percent of 1500 calories per day = 375 calories.

    Proteins: 50 percent of 1500 calories per day = 750 calories.

    4. Need to increase muscles bulk, but still reduce weight.

    Fat: 10 percent of 1500 calorie per day = 150 calories.

    Complex Carbohydrates: 15 percent of 1500 calories per day = 225 calories.

    Proteins: 75 percent of 1500 calories per day = 1125 calories.

    Exercise the muscles you want to develop, you can find right exercise on line, recommend use of light weights.

    Foot note: To take fat is so important, while reducing even fat, that it is included in all cases. If the fat is completely cut out, body will think of producing the fat, and will produce the fat by reducing metabolism, without fat in take, you may actually again weight even at lower than 1500 calorie leve

  9. I don't know what you're looking at, but there is no way you're burning 500 calories in 30 minutes of biking, unless you have incredibly high friction set, like mountains.

    Try walking/running 10 miles throughout the day.  That'll knock off 1000 calories.
